When men are talking, and especially when they're listening, it's with purpose. It's just not in our DNA to lounge around, sip coffee, and dab at our eyes with tissue as if we're in an AA meeting or on some psychologist's couch trying to get things off our chest. But even more? No man wants to sit around gabbing with you like we're one of your girlfriends. Now, we understand that we're not the essence of perfection and there are going to be times when you're mad at us and need to let us know it we get that, though we don't necessarily want to have to concentrate on an hourlong angry lecture about how we screwed up.

"We Need to Talk," and Other Words That Make Men Run for Coverįor a man, few words are as menacing as those four-especially when a woman is the one saying them and he's on the receiving end. What really makes men tick? Steve Harvey lets you inside the mind of a man.
